A smaller bored piling rig should be identified by both its boring method and its formal card band. This A47 page helps an existing cardholder choose the right renewal booking rather than relying on the broad search term small piling rig.
NOCN's A47 background describes a tracked rig with a vertical mast and rotary attachment used to create borings. That equipment context distinguishes it from a driven rig's percussive arrangement. It is not a specification for a bore or a foundation design.
A48 is the larger bored-rig entry. A45 and A46 concern driven rigs, so similar dimensions do not make them equivalent to A47. Check exact card and machine details at a weight boundary rather than deciding from the title alone.

The current NOCN tool maps A47 to Piling and pumping of materials. Study the assigned material online at your own pace. NOCN uses shared renewal modules; the equipment background here does not promise a separate machine-only syllabus.
✓ TrainifyHUB category booking fee: £75.
✓ After purchase, contact hello@slbrothers.co.uk with your reference and relevant card codes.
✓ We check the booking and arrange external enrolment manually.
✓ Follow the individual access instructions supplied.
Approximately 2 hours is a planning estimate, not an official minimum or a scheduled class. Your pace, review needs and NOCN’s current material affect actual time.
Retain the learning evidence supplied by NOCN and check the separate current card-renewal requirements. CPD does not automatically renew your card or award new practical competence.

These details explain the category. The actual current NOCN renewal material governs what you study.
An operator sees two compact rigs on a project, one driven and one bored. They use the A47 entry on the card when arranging renewal and ask about the relevant mapping instead of selecting the first compact-rig page shown.
✓ Review assigned piling-and-pumping CPD in relation to your existing bored-rig duties.
✓ Check category boundaries and additional rig entries before purchasing learning.
✓ Retain the completion record for the separate renewal application.

A booking for an existing Piling Rig Bored below 20 tonnes cardholder should be based on the formal category, not a similar-looking machine or a broad site job title. A48 is the larger bored-rig entry. A45 and A46 concern driven rigs, so similar dimensions do not make them equivalent to A47. Check exact card and machine details at a weight boundary rather than deciding from the title alone.
✓ Confirm the precise card entry before enrolment.
✓ Use the related pages to resolve similar names.
✓ Ask for a mapping check when several categories need renewal.
✓ Plan independent learning around your commitments.
Keep the evidence supplied through the NOCN learning route with your A47 renewal records. Follow current provider instructions and the separate CPCS application process. TrainifyHUB does not issue a replacement competence card or promise automatic renewal.
